I mean, that must be the case for all of these parents to claim that their newly emerged spawn is the most adorable creature on the planet when the rest of us see a naked mole rat in a soggy diaper.
Maybe that's just me...? But you have to admit, just because it's small does not always mean it's cute. And it's kind of hard for me to hide my disappointed birthday present face sometimes...so I plan to never be that close to a freshly hatched human. It's best for everyone if I give it at least a few weeks to cute up before I visit. Thank you in advance for your understanding.
I TOTALLY agree...naturally, I think all my nieces and nephews are adorable (perhaps I am a bit blind), but I find surprisingly few other babies cute. And it is SO difficult when their parents are like "isn't s/he just adorable?!?" and you have to fake the smile and positive response when you're secretly thinking that they look like something you've seen in an alien movie.... *sigh*
